About This Home

As of June 2025

The home consists of a large slate covered porch, 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a sleeping porch/balcony off the second level, 3 fireplaces (1 with wood insert), remodeled kitchen, living room, dining room and laundry on main level, finished attic, and cellar. There are 45.55 acres of land in AG – half woods and half fields. Approximately 22 aces of the land are pastures, hay fields, and riding areas with riding trails connecting into trails along Winters Run Stream. The property is currently being used for horses and goats along with flower/vegetable gardens and grape vines. There is a 3 car detached garage with a 5 year old cedar shingle roof, 2 garage door openers and spot lights. The outbuildings include a large bank barn, run-in barn, and a 3 stall barn and tack room.
